Decision day: How the region’s students picked their college

Noted: Cliché as it sounds, I knew I wanted to go to Wisconsin-Madison within about 20 minutes of my being on campus. Prior to visiting, it had checked all of my boxes: it was a big school with great game days and school spirit, it had an extremely impressive dairy science program (arguably the best in the nation), and the location wasn’t too close to home while still having all of the seasons. But my love for the school grew exponentially while I was on campus.
